I haven't posted a picture of Jimmy in his PJ's in a while. He turns into a lemon when he's asleep. He was livid about me waking him up to take these pictures. I love this lizard so dang much ❤️.
After going back and forth about buying a fogger or modifying the humidifier with an exhaust to blow the mist into the enclosure, I just decided to build a stand. Boom. Problem solved. Everything is custom!
Seriously though, it's so much more cost effective to build everything yourself. Between...
I think that back in like 2004 is when I first joined the forums when it was in its infancy. I was keeping veileds back then and attempting to breed them and needed some help in getting everything off the ground. Truth be known, I'm not 100% sure the forums I joined was in fact this one. I...
Where did you get him? It sounds like and looks like he is experiencing severe stress. You clearly haven't had him long enough for it to be a husbandry issue. Did you get him from a breeder or a pet store like Petco? Honestly, I think the best you can do is just give him space and let him...
The linear bulb you linked is for a T8 bulb. These are now essentially obsolete in the reptile husbandry world. Please make it a point to stay away from this older technology. I will provide links for the most cost effective solution to your lighting woes below. It is really pretty simple and...
That's awesome! I really dig it. Please keep us updated as you make progress. I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product at every step of construction.
My theory here is that the hiding is him trying to get away from that INTENSE and POWERFUL mercury vapor bulb. 160 watts at that distance is creating a furnace that he's probably trying to run and hide from. I think that is the first thing you address. It has the potential to end badly...
He's...
It's finally supposed to get above freezing for the first time in a few months in the next week! I am elated. I love Alaska but this winter was exceptionally cold. We have all been waiting with bated breath for break-up. You really can't beat the summers here though. The long suffering pays...
This speaks to my Jimmy and his shocking consumption of an adult mouse a few weeks ago. A mouse infestation in our house brought one of them into his cage in search of food...only for it to become food for my 7 month old Panther.
His fecal was massive but aside from the size there wasn't...
Jimmy is all moved into his new place. I'm really happy with how the actual construction turned out, but I'm not too pleased with how the interior decor and layout turned out. I really wanted to put a mass cane in place of the pothos that's on the bottom of the cage but there is absolutely...
A little breakdown of the new build now that it's all done..... structurally at least. Still need to dress the interior of course. I would love to get your thoughts on it please ?.
